NO Anthology with preorder at Gamestop, did I get screwed?

[Green_Day_584]

hmm... im worried what im seeing on the EB Australia website:

http://www.ebgames.com.au/productSearch.cfm

it says "special offer" under the normal edition, but not under the CE... and on the CE page it mentions nothing. i hope i get all the stuff i thought i was...

[unrealkiller]

i got my UT3 CE from Game Stop and i also got the free Unreal Anthology and code to unlock in-game character

[heidelun]

You mean you had to pay $19.99 to get Anthology? that sounds like it wasn't included but he thought you wanted to buy it also.

Oh, no. they didn't charge me 19.99 but I still had to sign it.

[KriLL3.8™]

"Sign it" means what in this context?

[Aeroslin]

anthology anhology. A real UTer got them all

Exactly.

[pygmallion]

Yep, I pre-ordered the CE version, walked in and out with no anthology or character code...

i'll be going in tomorrow and asking for it....why was Gamestop employee's the last to know this?

[Ikaros]

The card is a slip of paper with the UT3 logon on it and a number.

What do you mean the "UT3 logon" was on it? My Gamestop didn't have any slips and he called and just wrote down the unlock code itself for me. Are you saying I am still missing some kind of logon info?

Yeah I know about the unlock all characters code but I want to earn the rest of them by completing the game.

Correction I meant "logo". Being in IT support stuff happens...

Mine had a small printed UT3 slip of paper with the number printed on it.
The manager gave it to me with the kit.

kapesh?

[Ikaros]

Thanks for clarifying. You had me worried since I didn't get the actual UT3 unlock slip! I'm in IT too, so yeah I understand

I did not get it either. They said if it was free it would have been at a $0.00 promotion. I was like I'm reading it off your website. That's false advertisement then. The manager said he will look into it. I doubt he will. Maybe I will threaten to go to Best Buy now and do my pre order there. I will get no more games from you anymore. I did not get the unlock code either. He was like I dont have anymore. For some reason I think he's lying. There all a bunch of @$$es at both my EB & Game Stop.
Mischa.

How about phoning their customer services?

Hmm, that sucks that there was so much trouble with this.

I pre-ordered the CE online (didn't even know about the anthology promo until well after I pre-ordered) and both came to my house yesterday. No character card though... oh well.

[Im a Chef]

at least you guys got the actual game I got mine in yesterday and guess what got anthology but no UT3 bet you knew how I felt.

[Ikaros]

I think for online orders they were supposed to email you the code, according to Gamestop's website here: http://www.gamestop.com/product.asp?product_id=B646503A

Two preorder bonus items:

Free in-game character Ariel Iron Clad.
Unreal Anthology with 5 games including Unreal, Return to Na Pali expansion, Unreal II: The Awakening, Unreal Tournament GOTY Edition and Unreal Tournament 2004 with Editors Choice Edition & Mega Bonus Pack.
Store customers will recieve extra character code in store with reservation. Online customers will recieve codes via e-mail the week of game launch.

I will try this on my lunch break. I'll post back to tell everyone what they said. Hopefully I will be getting it. I'm probably just going to ebay it anyways but it's the point I didn't get it.
